WASTED WEALTH.
- The taxpayers of Oregon have
. had a good deal of their bard cash
appropriated in the name of the
wild game of the State and its
supposed protection..
Legislatures haye had to use
much of their high-priced time in
discussing the subject, find barrels
of money have been spent as game
money, none of which ever went
toward buying a load of hay to
keep wild game from starving
through a hard winter.
There seems to be more name
than game to the matter, and the
name is used without the consent
of the game to use up money in its
name.
It were better to put this cash
into the good work of introducing
Lew range grasses in Oregon and
making the State support 10 head
of live-stock where it does 1 now.
With new grasses this can be
done.
The thing to do with the wild
game is to board it all at the Port
land City Park and give the grass
and browse it now uses to sheep
and cattle, and instead of higb
priced game-wardens hire a few
professional hunters to shoot the
varmints.
SENATORIAL.
The situation at Salem continues un
solved, with chances in favor of any
body. Yesterday's vote gave Corbttt 32;
lUnger Herman 29; lnman 20; scattered
3.
CloeeJy following the shaking-up that
Roosevelt's Rough Riders gave her, old
Spain is now getting another from her
borne people. There is serious rioting
in Madrid, and the town is in a state of
siege. But Spain can congratulate her
self on having unloaded her colonies
onto the U. S. and gotten several mil
lions to boot.
WESTWARD HO!
The stream is now setting in that will
land in the fur west thousands of peo
ple from the east and middle west.
1800 homeseekers started, yesterday
from Chicago, and railroad men figure
that these figures will be kept up dur
the next 8 months, when weekly home
seekers' reduced rates are given.
When these people bring industry,
energy and some means with them,
they are almost sure to better their
conditions.
Homesoekers who came to Morrow
county will find here low-priced lands
and advantages not to be found else
where. OREGON GENIUS.
( Homer Davenport, the great cartoonist
of the N. Y, Journal, who has achieved
international fame, is re-visiting his
. native Oregon, and being xtendod the
warm welcome he deserves.
Ho was raised in the picturesque
Waldo Hills, east from Salem, and
when only half his present length of (i
feet began drawing funny pictures on
the ham door of his dad Tim hoeing
corn and resting simultaneously.
Homer's genius has come to be recog
ni.od the world over, and while at the
further end of the continent he never
fails to get in a good word for O.-egon,
JOYOUS SPRING.
Crocuses are coming on in Heppner
gardens, and soon suspicions of emerald
green will be seen increasing along the
brushy bottoms of the krix, the wild
flowers will be blooming, the birds
singing, the lambs skipping, and all
nature will he rejoicing at the return of
spring throughout the Heppner Hills.
LITERARY.
That Environments have less to do
with a man's circumstances in life than
his character was successfully proven
at the debate given by the H. L, and D.
Society last Friday evening. The victors
were Jas. Hart and A. G. Bartholomew
and the victims B. B. Kelley and J, W.
Shipley. Besides the debate an inter
eating program was rendered, most
commendable parts being the recita-
tions given by Miss Lillian Bisbee and
J. B. Boal.
A program was announced for the
next meeting which will take place at
the Christian church Friday, Feb. 15,
at 7:30 p.m. The question for debate
will be. Resolved that capital punish
ment should be abolished. The leaders
are Rev. Nickelsen and A. G. Bartholo
mew. This mooting will be public and
everybody is cordially invited.
SPRING SHOWERS.
The warm rains returned to Heppner
this weok, washing away what little
snow remained and xtracting the frost
from the hard hearted ground.
The first of the week was composed
of warm, sunshiny days, with weather
at night just below freezing.
On the creek above town Frank
Huberts wound up bis ice harvesting
Saturday, and both be and Jim Cowins
secured good crops.
Stock which was being fed for
couple of weeks has been again turned
out on grass, and is thriving.
MONEY TALKS.
A doen of the wealthiest capitalist
in the country men who wield absolute
- control over immense business enter
imses will tell the readers of The
Saturday Evoning Post (Feb. 1() wl
I hoy remain in the rare which they
have already won.
Kadi of them writes frankly whetho
lie makes money for its own sake, for
the sheer iov of working, or to gain th
power with which vast capital invests
itself.

MINING MEETING.
The stockholders of the newly
organized Heppner Mining Co.
held a meeting Tuesday and elect
ed the following officers:
D. B. Stalter, president and gen
eral manager.
C. E. Kedfield, vice-president.
T. V. Ayers, secretary.

The head office of the company
is at Heppner, and its mines are in

million-dollar propositions.
The Co. has a capital stock of
$1,000,000, fully paid and non-assessable,
par value $1 per share.
To create a development fund
shares will now be sold at 10 cents
each, and at that price they ought
to be a good investment.
LADIES' HOME JOURNAL,
Theodasia Burr's remarkable life
tory is capitally told by an ad-
minug writer in tne i'eDruary
Ladies' Home Journal. Such ex
tremes of joy and sorrow as were
the lot of "The Beautiful Daughter
of Aaron Burr" come to few wo
men. The story of the famous
hymn, "Nearer My God, to Thee,"
and a close view of its brilliant
author, are united in "A Woman
to Whom Fame Came After Death.'
How we get and keep the correot
time is explained in "The Clock
by Which We Set All Our Watch
es"; and "The Buffaloes of Good
night Kanch" is a record of the
only herd of North American bison
owned by a woman. Architecture,
the fashions, culinary matters, and
all themes interesting women are
amply treated. By The Curtis
Publishing Company, Philadelphia.

WOOL.
The only change in the Heppner
market is that E. H. Clarke, the p o-
neer wool dealer, is here ready to re
ceive consignments, ana has taaen i.
A. Herren's 1000 clip, 52,000 pounds.
Ilenpner warehouses still contain 2M
million pounds owned by the men who
raised it.
In Boston considerable wool is being
bought, and prices remain about the
same. Manufacturers have no stocks
on hand, but they desire none until they
soil the goods. At present, there are
no symptoms of prices advancing, and
thoro is an absence of any speculative
feeling. Territory wools continue to
head the list of business transacted.
Prices are quoted at 45((J4(lo for fine
medium and fine scoured, staple in,
and the strictly staple article, at 4850c.
The very latest from Bostou is:
Boston, Fob. 13. The American Wool
and Cottop Reporter will say tomorrow:
The market has shown considerable
activity, and there bas been a good
sized outward movement of the staple,
which is rellected in the record of ship
ments, which aggregate over 4,000,000
pounds, and the sales, so far as can be
learned, which we estimate at 4,500,000
pounds. The business of the past week
lias been largely in territories, of which
some good-sized lines have been moved
by several houses, the estimated sales
of these wools being about 2,000,000
pounds.- A good demand is also noted
for fine unwashed and medium fleeces
The tone of the market, as far as prices
are concerned, bas been irregular and
unsettled, the tendency of the whole in
favor of the buyer, although profits are
now lower as a whole than they weie
the first week. There is reported to
have been some weakening in the west
in certain quarters, but holders as a
rule are still firm and are talking much
higher prices than those which rule at
the seaboard. The sales for the week
in Boston amounted to 4,281,800 pounds
domestic and 355,000 foreign, making
total of 4,(i3tl,KOO pounds, against a total
of 3,031,400 for the previous week.
RUE K D F. U'S G.Z ETTE .
One of the handsomest and at the
same time most valuable publications
ever seen in these parts is the annual
number of the Breeder's iaette. Its
cover is an artistic creation from nature,
haviug a mounted cowboy and big herd
of cattle being bunched, with a rango
of magnificent mountains for a back
ground. The maaxine h.in many full-page and
colored pu-t'.trHH of pri.e stock which is
located all oyer the world, and the en
graving is the lnnt that money can buy.

mation for stockmen, and is published
by the Sanders Publishing Co., Chicago.
It comes weekly, and every issue is
worth more than the subscription price
of $3 ysar.
HERDING BUFFALO.
"Mrs. Mary A. Goodnight, of
Goodnight, Texas, enjoys the dis
tinction of being the only woman
in the world who owls a herd of
buffaloes. There are 100 in the
herd, more than half of which are
pure bred, the remainder being
"cataloes," as a cross between a
buffalo and a Galloway cow is I
called," writes E. J. Davison in
the February Ladies' Home Jour
nal. "The cataloes have the same
hump as the buffaloes, and shaggy
hair, but their color varies from
jet black to light brown, and they
are most readily distinguished
from the pure bred by their horns,
which are longer. The cataloes
are also much more tractable, and
can soon be taught to eat out of
one's hand. But the fuM-blood
buffaloes of the Goodnight herd
at least never repose full confi
dence in man. Big and powerful
as they are they are timid and run
away at the slightest alarm, al
though they have t ken food from
their owner's hand from the oppo
site side of a fence; nor will they
attack unless wounded or driven
into close quarters. Even with
this reputation for timidity Mtb.
Goodnight does not regard the
pure-bred buffaloes as trustworthy,
and does not consider it safe to go
among them on foot. Mrs. Good
night also has a herd of 15 elks.
In the great park, two square miles
in area, each animal herds with its
kind. Even the pure-blood buffalo
looks with a royal contempt upon
his plebeian half-brotber, the
catalo, and the two keep wide apart
in separate and distinct groups."

There ib more catarrh in this scot ion
of the country than all other diseases

was supposed to be incurable. For e
great many years doctors pronounced it
a looal disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with looal treatmedt, pronounced it
inourable. Holenoe bas proven oatairb
to be a constitutional disease, and there

FASHIONS FOR THE SPRING,
The modes for spring are now taking
definite shape and The Delineator for
the month of March illustrates and de
scribes some decided novelties. It
looks as though there might be a re
turn of overskirts as represented by
a series of two or three flounces. Eton
Jackets in various modern forma of
modification are to be very popular this
season and there will be a tendency to
show l'Aiglon collars as applied to
jackets. The ripple back effect on skirts
cut in habit fashion is also gaining
ground, and the March Delineator eon
tains an article written by an experi
enced dressmaker showing how to pro
duce this effect. French and Russian
etiects in the garments of children are
becoming more popular.
